Inspiration Boards

Today's brides are so into scrapbooking their wedding - whether it be the traditional cut-and-paste paper method or a high-tech online version. It doesn't need to be complicated or overly intricate but creating your own inspiration board is a terrific way to get an overall feel for the design of your wedding elements. It helps you to coordinate all the bits and pieces, especially colour schemes, and gives you a bird's eye view of the look and feel.

Here are a few examples to get your creative juices flowing:

Your photo on a rose!

I just discovered these personalised roses and rose petals. I'm not sure if I love them or hate them...on one hand they are so original and on the other hand so, so tacky! Certainly a different idea. They are available in the UK and USA - wonder whether any Australian florists will take up the challenge?

Woman gives USB wedding ring to nerdy fiance

We love it! The wife-to-be of a Microsoft Game developer had a USB wedding ring made for her fiance. The ring is not an actual working USB but rather a model made in gold and incorporated into the wedding band. The interior is engraved with the words "For a lifetime of memories" signifying the memory capabilities of the USB drive.
This is an ultimate celebration of her lover's geekiness, which she doesn't share.
